My story

How this pet arrived: Carmelo was brought in by their previous owner on July 23, 2025. Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Carmelo! Carmelo is the kind of pup who prefers to ease into things. He's not the "jump into your lap and spill your coffee" type-more of a "hang back and watch the room before making his move" guy. But give him time (and treats-seriously, don't forget the treats), and he'll warm up like a cozy blanket on a rainy day. He's happiest when life isn't coming at him all at once. Sudden changes, loud chaos, or people rushing up to smother him in affection? Hard pass. The way to Carmelo's heart is slow, snack-filled, and on his terms. Let him come to you-he's got this whole "mysterious charm" thing going. If you've got kids at home, they should be 8 or older, respectful of personal space, and totally down to meet Carmelo here before bringing him home. He likes to interview his potential squad in person. Come meet Carmelo and see if you're snack-compatible.Shy/Fearful Dog: Carmelo requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them. Primary Color: Tan Weight: 37.8 Age: 9yrs 6mths 2wks

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Carmelo, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
